Smart move Bart. I can almost guarantee you that he just bought his team at least one unneccessary roughness foul tomorrow. You don't threaten the health of another player and not get the refs to watch you.

So much for the quiet Bart Scott. I heard a Jets writer from the NYDN on 98.5 yesterday say he can't remember the last time Scott made a play. "Be very careful what you say about our coach." Hmm, I don't believe Welker ever mentioned Rex. You just know that, apart from a couple of loudmouths, the rest of the Jets got a good snicker out of what Welker said.

You found that funny? That was a direct threat towards Welker on the field. I'm sorry if I missed something, but sh!t like this should be taken seriously by the league and appropriate action should be taken. Consider that Rex learned from his dad, Buddy about putting $$bounties out on players health in the locker room. It wouldn't surprise me if he was doing this as well.

But yes, I still smiled after reading it because I can see why Scott said that.

How would the Pats players - and fans - react if one of the Jesters made a sly reference to BB's personal issues? I can imagine the hue and cry that will follow bemoaning that personal issues shoudn't be raked and that the player crossed the line. Players will take it personally if their coach is made fun of. Period.

Scott, IMO, has been guarded for the last few months and not to been his usual loudmouth. His response to Brady watching a Broadway show was a guarded, non-trash and a smart one.

Cant hurt them if you cant catch them. They probably think the D has it figured out, only for the Pats tothrow out something completely different. The Jets were reved up last game saying hownthe Pats give false compliments an how they will show the pats whats up...45-3. Read the article they all talk about how the
pats quietly tweek them. Its like a mouse who keeps stealing peanuts from an elephant.

They did. Between so-called 'spygate' and when BB went through his divorce and was seen with his 'lady' friend there was a lot of media and talk by other fans about it.
The jets are just grasping at straws to try and eek out some sort of motivation from it. The problem is when there isn't anything to really get worked up about and a few idiots beat their chests the rest of the guys in the locker room know it isn't a big deal. Of course, when players verbally attack your QB and promise physical harm on them then it really isn't hard to become motivated by it. The Patriots are so phucking far into the Jets' heads it's scary.

1) Heh heh, Wes will wear street clothes because he will be golfing when the Pats lose, see what I did there? or

2) I will cripple Wes Welker.

This definitely qualifies as upping the ante. It's also thug-funny because he has exactly the same out that Welker does (How do you get that from what I said?)

And of course, it's not funny to the other team's fans, but what else is new?

That is a stretch to think he meant that they would knock the Pats out of the playoffs rather than a thinly veiled threat.

First, Scott isn't that smart. He has never been one to mince words. He has never been the master of the double-entendre. He is more of a Joey Porter, trash talking time that says things without thinking.

Second, Newsday's article positioned it as Scott being upset with Welker's comments. As a guy who acts on emotions, it seems clear he just reacted.

Now if anything becomes of this, that can be the argument Scott and the Jets make. Goodell is all about player safety and threating to end an other player's days in an uniform to the press is not something he wants to have happen.
